Benefits
- Inexpensive and durable; we challenge anyone to match Premier’s combination of cost and quality.
- Having an elevated animal when foot trimming saves your body from stress or strain. Pinchers, knives and trimmers can be used with lowered risk to animal and user.
- Restless animals don’t like to stand still. A platform restraint allows a free hand when using shearing machines or hand shears.
- Fine tune your show animals appearance by focusing on fitting the animal—not holding them still.
- Hot-dip galvanizing ensures an attractive appearance and the lowest cost per year of use. (Hot-dip galvanized steel resists rusting longer than painted steel.)
- Lightweight design is easy to carry and store.
- SHIPS FREE via Ground Service within the contiguous USA.

Very heavy duty head piece, arrived quickly and in good shape. I like the design of the chain going over the nose. I might even need to invest in the side rails!
Lynn O from Western New York
We raise Shetland Sheep; going from shearing 8 to 50 having the right equipment for the job saves a tremendous amount of time. System was easy to set up and animals moved up the ramp without any trouble. We did need to shorten the tubing on the head bar as it was too tall for our smaller ewes and the chain does have a tendency to slide off smaller faced sheep. I am accustom to making modification for our smaller sheep and would recommend the stand to owners regardless of breed.

I orered the headpiece only and I was very impressed when it arived a day earlier than it was supposed to. However, when I opened the package I was a little disapointed to find that the chain wouldn't slide into the reciever. It was a simple fix (I had to pry the reciever open with a hammer) but it was a little agrivating to have to make further adjustments to an ordered purchase. Overall I think this is a great product that does exactly what I want it to do.

I own angora and pygora goats. I never used a stand before because the angora goats were easy to hold and work with. The pygora goats have no horns and I was having trouble working with them, so decided to try a stand. I don't have the room for a traditional one and chose the portable one. The height is great, it's sturdy and easy to store. It works great with both goats. I did purchase the side rails, but not the ramp. I would recommend the side rails since the goats tend to move towards one side and I wouldn't want them to step off.

I'm a 4-Her who raises market goats and sheep, and needed a stand that would work for both. I spent a very long time looking online, and this stand is by far the cheapest.(Even with shipping.) I've had it a year, and I am still pleased with it. It's a little taller than most stands, which I love! But it is harder to put the animals on. I lose the securing pins often, but they are super easy to replace. My one and only real complaint is that the chain doesn't usually stay secure over the animal's nose. Not a huge deal, but it can be troublesome.
All that said, I totally recommend this, and would buy it again. If have found no other problems whatsoever. It hasn't rusted at all, and I live in a very damp area. It was delivered promptly, and was in excellent condition.
I have never purchased or used the ramp or rails, but sometimes consider buying just one rail for the more troublesome animals.
